You guys do remember Hans Zimmer did the soundtrack for Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 iirc
If somebodies first Hideo game was Death Stranding, I can understand why he thinks it so.

Hans Zimmer is overrated and annoying, but so is Kojima, so a match made in heaven.

Hans Zimmer's Thin Red Line soundtrack is the best music ever recorded.
Calling him overrated is pure nonsense.

Hey! Found a job opportunity perfect for you!
…Zimmer’s more recent stuff isn’t fabulous, but he’s one of the greatest movie score composers of all time. Peaking for me personally with The Dark Knight soundtrack.
Kojima can be a blowhard, but he’s undeniably one of the most creative devs in the industry, despite his worst excesses that let him down on occasion.

You guys do understand that being so totally revered, overused and overpraised by their industries means that it is quite impossible to make a case that they are not overrated.
Zimmer is overused and mainly coasts by these days, the last score he did that felt "fun" was the Pirates of the Caribbean trilogy.
Also this news was already known no? It's talked about in the making of MGS2 video that was released around the time of the game.
Also LOL at people posting examples of music from MGS2 saying it's better when it was Norihiko Hibino composing the gameplay and menu stuff. HGW only scored the cutscenes.

Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
But he scored Modern Warfare 2.
I absolutely LOVE Harry Gregson-Williams's take on the MGS theme.
Always gives me goosebumps
